Tyre Pressure 101
Why is correct tyre pressure essential?
Maintaining tyre pressure is not always a top priority on people’s to-do lists but there are several good reasons why it should be.
Safer Driving – the combination of under inflation and high speeds can make it harder to stop quickly without skidding.
Saving Money – inflating tyres to their correct pressure can improve fuel economy and maximise the life of tyres and suspension components.
Saving the Environment – better fuel economy equates to lower emissions.
So what is the correct tyre pressure for my vehicle?
All vehicles have a tyre plate that states rim size, tyre size and ideal pressures. It is typically located on the inside driver’s door or A pillar. Commercial vehicles will also have information on tyre pressures for front/ rear under load.
